IRGC claims downing two US drones over Kish Island in Persian Gulf

The claim is unverified and follows a pattern of Iranian assertions of downing US drones, but if confirmed, it would mark a direct military engagement with US assets. The incident could escalate tensions in the Persian Gulf, though the US has not yet commented.
